[PATCH v2] mm/ioremap: Fix iomap_max_page_shift

iomap_max_page_shift is expected to contain a page shift,
so it can't be a 'bool', has to be an 'unsigned int'

And fix the default values: P4D_SHIFT is when huge iomap is allowed.

However, on some architectures (eg: powerpc book3s/64), P4D_SHIFT is
not a constant so it can't be used to initialise a static variable.
So, initialise iomap_max_page_shift with a maximum shift supported
by the architecture, it is gated by P4D_SHIFT in vmap_try_huge_p4d()
anyway.

v2: Initialise with BITS_PER_LONG - 1 instead of P4D_SHIFT which is not a constant on powerpc/64.
